October 31st devotional

Dear Friends,
 
I’m amazed at those who offer counsel to others.  Pastors, Counselors, friends and family who listen and offer advise to others are indeed walking on holy ground.  My wife, Cheryl, is an elementary counselor at Boren elementary here in Mansfield.  First of all, I could NEVER do her job.  She is simply amazing at what she does and how she handles each situation.  Sometimes she tells me that she does not know where the words come from when she’s helping a student in need, but the right words come out at the right time and a student is blessed by them.  She knows and we all know that she is living in the Spirit at that precise moment.  Beautiful!  So, read today’s devotional and do your best to live in the Spirit at all times.  Hugs and Love, Scott

Learn To Listen To Me even while you are listening to other people. As they open their souls to your scrutiny, you are on holy ground. You need the help of My Spirit to respond appropriately. Ask Him to think through you, live through you, love through you. My own Being is alive within you in the Person of the Holy Spirit. If you respond to others’ needs through your unaided thought processes, you offer them dry crumbs. My streams of living water flow through you to other people. Be a channel of My Love, Joy, and Peace by listening to Me as you listen to others.

Exodus 3:5 5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

1 Corinthians 6:19 
19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own.

John 7:38-39 
38Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” 39By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
